The EXP9 is a nine-zone expansion module designed to work exclusively with the ZPR68-10 Six-Zone Eight-Source Remote Preamp. A single EXP9 has the capability to expand the ZPR68-10 to a total of 15 zones of control, while two EXP9 units can be used to create 24 zones of control.

The EXP9 series is available with from 1 to 9 "XCARDs" (zone expansion PCBs) installed in its nine available openings. The EXP9-5 comes equipped with 6 cards, pre-loaded and tested at the factory, to give you 12 zones of control when combined with your ZPR68-10. Unused zone openings are covered from underneath with individual cover plates. These are removed, as needed, when additional zone XCARDs are installed in the field.

Expansion/replacement XCARD zone cards for this item are available here. To rack mount your EXP9 please see the RMEXP.

The features, functions and performance of the zones on the EXP9 are identical in every way to those of the ZPR68-10
CAUTION: The EXP9 cannot operate by itself. It must be connected to a ZPR68-10. Also, it will not operate with the original ZPR68 (older version).

The EXP9 connects to the ZPR68-10 via two multiconductor ribbon cables (included). One is a 26- conductor cable, the other 50.

As with the ZPR68-10, the EXP9 uses a multi-voltage high-current AC power supply (included).

Control of all zones is also possible via the COM PORT (RS232 data signal compatible) on the connected ZPR68-10.

As with the ZPR68-10, the EXP9 operates with IR commands from the Xantech RC68 IR Remote/Programmer (available separately). As received from the factory, each zone (as well as the XCARDs) is set to IR Code Group number 68.
